Never before use music...


Recommended Posts

What is the most modern artist anyone can think of that would translate to drum corps? Of Monsters and Men? Taylor Swift (I know half of y'all really love her music)? Some more Indie/Experimental for the Bluecoats to tackle? Could a corps do hip hop/rap music?

I recall mentioning music by Norwegian-American composer Ola Gjeilo over in the "Music Corps Should Do" thread. However, I happened to come across this arrangement of a piece by him today. Originally written for SATB choir and solo cello, and transcribed for wind band by both the composer and J. Eric Wilson (director of the Baylor University Wind Ensemble), here is "Serenity." I can see the Blue Knights doing this with the recent direction they have been taking.

I sent this to Bluecoats' FB page and they loved it. Could totally hear them doing this!

Holy moly the intonation on that portamento at 0:45 is impressive.
